If you were among those eagerly awaiting the arrival of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed  (PS3, PS2, PSP, Xbox 360, Wii, DS), we have some potentially upsetting news. There’s apparently a rumor in circulation that hints that the game’s expected April launch will be delayed.

No other details are available at this point on why it’s been pushed back, although the rumor hints that we could be facing a September launch. We make mention that IGN has listed Force Unleashed for an August launch, though we note it’s unclear if this is indeed the case.

So, where does that leave us? One bit of speculation we picked up via Destructoid hints the delay was due to Grand Theft Auto 4‘s (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3) upcoming launch, which is also this coming April.

GTA4 was also the recent topic of discussion by Mike Hikey. The Janco Partners analyst assessed that Rockstar’s game could spell trouble even for the debut of the Iron Man movie for early May.

Of course, we remind you guys that this is just a speculation – visit us again in case we receive more solid info regarding when The Force is sure to be Unleashed.
